San Gorgonio Crossing Project EIR
1040 La Brea Avenue Hotel Categorical Exemption
The City of West Hollywood selected FCS to prepare necessary technical studies and the appropriate level of CEQA documentation for the 1040 La Brea Project. FCS completed detailed technical studies, including an Air Quality and GHG Emissions Analysis, Noise Analysis, and Traffic Impact Analysis, and subsequently facilitated the successful completion of a Categorical Exemption pursuant to CEQA.
San Ramon City Center Plaza District Finding of Consistency
FCS prepared a Finding of Consistency to provide CEQA coverage for the project-level entitlements associated with the Plaza District. The San Ramon City Center project, a 2.1-million-square-foot mixed use project, was originally approved by the San Ramon City Council in December 2007. In conjunction with the approvals, the City Council certified the San Ramon City Center Subsequent EIR, which was prepared by FCS.
Warm Springs/South Fremont Community Plan EIR
The Community Plan envisions up to 4,000 dwelling units, 10 million square feet of non-residential uses, 20,000 new jobs, and a 600-student elementary school over a planning horizon of more than 20 years. FCS carefully evaluated ways to avoid or reduce potential impacts through thoughtful planning of this highly constrained site, located between the Union Pacific railroad, BART corridor, and Interstate 880.
